Pros:

산마르코 광장과 그랜드운하등 주요관광지 접근성 용이. 직원이 친절하고 조식도 가성비 좋음. 특히 산 자카리아 바포레토 선착장에서 5분거리라 여기저기 이동하기 좋았음.

Cons:

우리 방의 경우 카페바가 바로 옆건물에 있어 늦은 밤까지 소음이 좀 거슬림.

Excelente localização, quarto amplo, cama confortável e ar-condicionado eficiente. Ótima estadia!
Pros:

Gostei muito do quarto, que era amplo, tinha uma bela decoração e uma cama bastante confortável. A localização também é excelente, a cerca de 450 metros da Praça de São Marcos, próximo das principais atrações de Veneza, de restaurantes, bares e do transporte público aquático, facilitando bastante os deslocamentos pela cidade.

Cons:

Não tenho do que reclamar do hotel. A estadia foi muito agradável, e o ar-condicionado funcionava muito bem, proporcionando conforto térmico durante toda a hospedagem.

Pleasantly Surprised
Pros:

Good space for a 2 night stay close to water taxi and sites, walkable helpful staff. I wasn't expecting much however to my surprise the room was as pictured, bed was decent enough for us to actually sleep nice space and clean!

Cons:

The breakfast wasn't a value with such limited selections still nice to have as an option before starting the day.

Nice for short stay
Pros:

location, location, location. every hotel in Venice sightseeing area is expensive. this hotel is easily accessible from the piers and thus convenient. Good shower. We paid for the breakfast buffet which is good value with variety of food. We love the pancakes. The receiptionists are friendly and nice. We can store the luggage after checkout to do sightseeing before our departure.

Cons:

things are quite old, but guessed it was all the same with the hotels near san marco as buildings are of many years in that area.

Passables Hotel in toller Lage
Pros:

Wirklich tolle Lage, freundliches Personal, Frühstück (zum dazu buchen) war gut,, die Auswahl hat mir gefallen; geräumige Zimmer, Bad war in Ordnung, Sanitäranlagen sehr gut, Zimmer im venezianischen Stil eingerichtet. Sympathische und freundliche Atmosphäre.

Cons:

Wie hätten statt den Überwurfdecken, die vermutlich nicht so oft gewaschen werden wie die weißen Laken, lieber normale dickere Bettdecken gehabt. Aber das ist im Süden ja oft so mit den Überwurfdecken..
Zimmer waren hellhörig (Bar ist gleich nebenan), die Matratzen eher durchgelegen und der Kaffee war leider nicht so gut.
